Inventing Shadows Song Lyrics
Inventing Shadows by Metronomy It's not surprising it could end like this
Your eyes are open even when you kiss
You're so distant
So cold, so resistant
You see the world in only gray and black
Now how can anybody live like that
Without screaming, without dying for dreaming
And you stare out the window at the passing cars
And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars
No you're never quite happy right where you are
So you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none, no there are none
Yeah you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none
You don't even see the sun, can't you see the sun
It can't be shocking I might want to leave
The way you're living's like you're half asleep
You just drain me
If I go who could blame me
And you stare out the window at the passing cars
And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars
No you're never quite happy right where you are, right where you are, with all that you are
And so you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none, no there are none
Yeah you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none
You don't even see the sun, can't you see the sun
You're so young, so beautiful, so flawless in my eyes
Don't you know the world shines
Every time you smile
Why can't you just smile
So you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none, no there are none
Yeah you keep on inventing shadows
Where there are none
You don't even see the sun, can't you see the sun
You dim the lights in the world I see
How I wish that I could still believe
Time to save me
If I go, who could blame me
